THE SCAM OF AUSTERITY:
As we look around us today... we see a war zone. A war against the Middle Class ! A covert war that has been going on for years! A war with a battle plan. A plan to finance politicians like (Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin ) to take over our Government and with an agenda to give the final death blow against Labor and the Middle Class.
WHAT WE SEE IS... A war to steal the money out of the hands and pockets of hard working families'. A war that takes food from children's mouths. A war that sucks the heat from our furnaces on the coldest winter's days.
THIS IS OUR REALITY.... THIS IS WHAT IS GOING... HERE & NOW!
I ASK THEN... Where is all that money going? Money doesn't disappear nor does it dematerialize. it had to go somewhere.
It went into the huge bank vaults of the bankers and, The 2% of the population who intentionally sucked all the money from our country and created all the job loss and the home foreclosures in the first place.
The same bankers and, the 2% of the population who were bailed-out by the US Tax Payers with over $700 Billion dollars.., from hard working people.
These same 2% and same Wall Street Bankers who took our Bail-Out money and didn't re-invest it in the people to create jobs as they had promised. But, they kept the money and continued to foreclose against families and then rewarded themselves with lavish million dollar bonuses as "job well done".
~ Proving again that: "TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS" was a Scam.!
These Bankers and, the 2% who now sit comfortably on piles money, now have all the time in the world to wait... Wait and watch as the citizens, families and workers squirm in pain and misery fighting poverty just for the basics in life... as they continue to lose their homes and jobs.
> IT IS TIME WE ALL ~ FOLLOW THE MONEY!
What we are seeing is a process leading this country down the same economic path as Turkey, Mexico, Greece. "A country with NO middle class!" A country with only the VERY RICH and The VERY POOR. What we are witnessing is the Resurgence Economic Principals dating back to the "PRE-INDUSTRIAL ERA"!
~ HENERY FORD CREATED THE MIDDLE CLASS IN AMERICA ~
Henry Ford in 1914 Set an Example for all of us to follow. Breaking with the long on-going "Industrial Era" Mentality ... When He Broke the Greedy On-Going Practice of Rich Industrialists: of paying their workers (a pittance!) ~ as little as possible...
Henry Ford made a bold deliberate move to "think outside the box" ! To pay twice the going labor rate to his workers. With an Idea so that this workers could then afford to buy his automobiles... His workers bought automobiles and more... houses and refrigerators and life got better for everyone... It was then...The Middle Class was born.
**Henry Ford's one bold act changed the world forever... And today has proven one very important economic principal for all us to follow into the future.
BUT TODAY:
We see that there is a plan in the works to turn back the clock! To reverted back again to those old failed economic principals of the Industrial Age ~ Once again paying people as little as possible... (a pittance!) While "The New Industrialists" once again horde huge profits on the backs of poor exploited labor. These are greedy people, this slash and burn industrial age thinking is destructive to the global economy as it is to our families our neighbors and to the fabric of our society.
** The Future is before us: **
But before we can move forward... We must learn from the past.
We must act,,, to plant the seeds of the future and stimulate growth to grow a strong "global economy" an economy that gives "all workers" a fair "World Wage" And basic global worker's rights. Rights, that regulate and protect the global work force. We need to level the playing field world-wide for long-term global growth and stability. To put and end to the Greedy Destructive Short-Term Profits and Exploitation of Labor that is destroying the world around us.
THE LESSON LEARNED:
Henry Ford's proved by example that in order for a populous to contribute to the economy they must be paid a fair living wage. It is in everyones best interest! A fair " Wage" globally expands the market place for all goods stimulates all commerce allows all people to be better their lives and contribute to a healthy economy and future for all of us everywhere.
~In a Democracy it is important that we.. FLOAT ALL BOATS ~

Two people were killed Friday in the Fine Arts Building of Henry Ford Community College in a murder-suicide, according to Dearborn Deputy Police Chief Gregg Brighton.
The gunman used a shotgun, killing a young woman and then himself in Room F-111. The identities of the victims were not released.
Brighton said: "The original call was some kind of assault ... shots in the building.
"Officers responded to the scene. They were able to get a perimeter on the building.
"An entry team entered the south hallway ... as they entered they heard another gunshot," he said. "Officers were able to enter one of the rooms, and discovered two deceased parties. We cleared the building."
Some students inside the building were evacuated by police and the crime scene has been secured by Dearborn police and campus police. Four Michigan State Police investigators are assisting in the crime scene investigation. Henry Ford CC will be closed the rest of the day today and counseling services will be offered.
Marjorie Swan, an HFCC official, said: "Our hearts go out to the young woman who lost her life today."
Diane Green, Henry Ford’s associate dean of counseling, said the campus sent out a message by its early alert system — specifically by a call to her cell phone — earlier this afternoon.
“They’re asking people to stay in offices and classrooms,” she said. “So we’re on a lockdown right now, but it’s very calm. They’re obviously taking control of the situation.”
In fact, staff in her office, she said, continued to meet with students who had appointments.
Outside Henry Ford’s Science Building just after 2 p.m, Henry Ford student Joumana Naeym, 19, of Dearborn said she still was trying to understand what happened.
An education major, she had been in a teacher’s office in the basement of the building when the teacher instructed Naeym not to leave. She remained for about two hours, she said, but didn’t hear any gunshots or what she assumed was the chaos outside.
“I’m just nervous about it all,” she said.
Meanwhile, public safety officers were put on alert at the adjacent University of Michigan’s Dearborn campus, but told there was “no threat” to the U-M campus, according to a statement issued by Rick Gordon, the police chief at the U-M campus.

A man and woman were found dead in a classroom building on the campus of Henry Ford Community College, said Dearborn Fire Department Battalion Chief John Hay.
This is a possible Murder-Suicide, said Chief John Hay but would not speculate further.
A woman who answered the phone in the president's office at Henry Ford Community College Friday told The Associated Press that police have secured the area but there was a gunman at the Dearborn school.
Dearborn police and the campus security say they are dealing with an emergency and are unable to provide any information.
